8.4 ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION

These sections contain electrical connection details for wiring a Moore 353. Each case rear connector and terminal
is identified. Connector styles are discussed in section 8.3 Mechanical Installation. Connector cover removal and
separation of the fixed portion or a connector from the removable portion is described.
Section 8.4.2 Wiring Guidelines contains specific information about connector removal for wiring, wire size, wire
stripping and other details that will be needed while wiring. Read this section before beginning to wire a controller.
Sections 8.4.3 through 8.4.12 contain wiring diagrams and, where needed, step-by-step installation procedures to
describe I/O and network wiring. Section 8.4.13 provides power input wiring information. Single controller and
daisy chained power wiring are illustrated.
•
Remove power from all wires and terminals before working on equipment.
•
In potentially hazardous atmosphere, remove power from equipment before
connecting or disconnecting power, signal, or other circuit.
•
Observe all pertinent regulations regarding installation in hazardous area.

8.4.1 Wiring Guidelines

Electrical Connections - Power, I/O, and LIL or Modbus network connections to a basic controller are completed
through removable connectors with terminals H, N, and 3-26. When the controller includes an I/O Expander board,
connectors with terminals 27-52 are also used. A case with direct entry connectors has an Ethernet connector for
use when an Ethernet board is included and the MPU Controller board firmware is V2.4 or later. Connector
locations are shown in Figures 8-5 and 8-6. Individual terminals functions are also identified in Table 8.1.
Connectors - Power terminals are identified by a letter: Hot and Neutral. The ground connection is made to a green
case/safety ground screw located between connectors. Signal I/O terminals are identified by a number: 3 through
52. A connector terminal will accept the following wire(s).
•
one 14-22 AWG (2.1-0.38 mm
• 2
two 16 AWG (1.3 mm )
•
three 18 AWG (0.96 mm
Wire Size Recommendations:
•
signal wiring - 18 AWG (0.96 mm
•
power wiring - 18 AWG (0.96 mm
Wire Stripping Recommendations:
•
connector terminal wiring - 1/4" (6 mm) to 5/16" (8 mm)
•
green ground screw wiring - 1/8" (10 mm) to 1/2" (13 mm)
Be careful not to nick the conductor or cut away strands.
